Detroit thunder rolled across the Circuit de la Sarthe as Cadillac won its first Le Mans pole, a feat last accomplished by a Detroit carmaker in 1967.

A pair of Cadillacs will start tomorrow on the front row of the 2025 24 Hours of Le Mans, you say? Great! But don’t get too carried away with the idea that an American brand could take the overall win,

The No. 4 Porsche, where Felipe Nasr and Nick Tandy will try to add a Le Mans victory to wins in the Rolex 24 at Daytona and Sebring 12-Hour, starts fifth. Laurens Vanthoor, starting 21st in the No. 6, will also try to complete endurance racing’s triple after co-driving with Nasr and Tandy in Daytona and Sebring.
